Product Details

The McLeod 4968-00-07 Soft-Lok is a competition-proven drag racing clutch and flywheel kit built for Ford 4.6L, 5.0L, and 5.4L engines with an 8-bolt crankshaft. Featuring a 10.5-inch disc diameter and a 1-1/8 x 26-spline input shaft specification, this kit is purpose-built for the drag strip and is NOT recommended for street use.

Race-Proven Performance:

  • NHRA and IHRA record-holding clutch assembly — the most widely used McLeod clutch among drag racers
  • Low static pressure design delivers light pedal effort with soft, controlled clutch engagement
  • Engineered to launch harder off the starting line with reduced tire spin
  • Adjustable spring pressure allows fine-tuning for varying track conditions and power levels
  • Available with counterweights for additional balance customization
  • Capable of handling engines producing up to 1,200 horsepower

Kit Includes:

  • Adjustable long-style pressure plate
  • Sintered iron 5135 compound friction disc
  • Billet aluminum flywheel — 8-bolt crankshaft pattern, 0-balance, 164-tooth ring gear

Construction & Specifications:

  • Disc diameter: 10.5 inches
  • Input shaft: 1-1/8 in. x 26-spline
  • Flywheel material: Billet aluminum (lightweight for reduced rotational mass)
  • Disc material: Sintered iron — high friction and durability under race conditions
  • Crankshaft bolt pattern: 8-bolt
  • Balance: 0 (neutral balance)
  • Ring gear tooth count: 164T
  • SFI rated and made in the USA

The McLeod Soft-Lok's billet aluminum flywheel significantly reduces rotational mass compared to a steel unit, contributing to faster revs and quicker reaction times at the line. The sintered iron disc provides the aggressive grip needed for consistent, repeatable launches in bracket and heads-up drag racing applications.

Clutch Usage

Performance

Autoplicity was great, I ordered my springs late Monday night and I received a shipment order confirmation number early Wednesday. So basically 1 business day and my order was out the door, pretty impressive. Can't wait 'till it gets here! Thanks Autoplicity!

Easy to use

Great prices on a lot of good stuff, shipping isn't what's listed in price comparison, but competitive.

The shipping was fast, although I couldn't get it the first day because they require signature for delivery. I guess it's an added safety measure. Thank you! Will shop buy from again!
